It is the standard 22-inch rifle configuration with a barrel-mounted step-elevator adjustable rear sight and a ramped front sight. The receiver is factory drilled and tapped, and a scope mount is installed to support optics if desired, while the iron sights remain in place for traditional use.
The walnut stock and matching fore-end feature a gloss finish, pressed checkering with fleur-de-lis panels, and a basketweave pattern. Additional stock details include a black grip cap with a white-line spacer, a ventilated recoil pad with a white-line spacer, and a rear sling swivel stud.
